Simakusi is located in the foggy northeastern corner of Taiwan, with an altitude of about 1,600 meters. It is known as the "Tribe of God" and is famous throughout the province for its giant red cypress forest. It takes about two hours to walk from the tribe to the primeval forest. When you arrive at the giant red cypress forest, you can see a giant sacred tree known as the "Grand Lord of the Sacred Tree". The tree is about 2,500 years old, with a tree circumference of 20.5 meters and a height of about 35 meters. Its most distinctive feature is the "human" tree shape. The discovery of the sacred tree group attracted many people and it also became the Furusato of cypress.
Located in the 8th neighborhood of Xiuluan Village, Jianshi Township, Hsinchu County, at an altitude of 1,670 meters, the residents are a Tayal tribe that migrated from the Ruiyan Tribe in Faxiang Village, Ren'ai Township, Nantou County. The original name was Simakus, but the household registration unit changed the name to Xinguang Tribe to avoid confusion with the homophonic Simakus. There are 50 households with about 250 to 300 people.
The church is located at an altitude of about 1,700 meters. It is a Christian church built by the Atayal people with their bare hands, brick by brick. The breathtakingly beautiful building contains the Atayal people's wisdom and faith in life. The church also has an excellent view overlooking the town of Zhenxibao, symbolizing the protection of the town.
This huge rock stands quietly in the deep pool at the bottom of the stream like a big river port. Every autumn, the maple forest all over the mountain attracts many photography enthusiasts to capture the beauty of this season. Listening to the natural melody echoing in the valley, the chirping of insects and birds, the lush green trees and the mottled red leaves, those who stand here are all reluctant to leave.
The Eagle River originates from Lidong Mountain and is one of the tributaries of Yufeng River, the upper reaches of Dahan River. The name of the Eagle River comes from the fact that eagles were often seen hovering above the valley in the old days. The environment along the way is quiet and rich in flora and fauna. The end of the trail is Lipu Waterfall. Lipu is called LIBU in the Atayal language, which means "railing". The waterfall splashes and splashes during the flood season, which is very spectacular. The one-way trip takes about 40 minutes. Along the way, there are gentle gravel roads and wooden plank trails, which are suitable for tourists of all ages.
